Job Description:
Job Description UK King's Daughters is a 455-bed regional
referral center in Ashland, Kentucky. We are part of the University
of Kentucky Health system. We operate more than 30 primary care
clinics in outlying areas of Kentucky and Ohio which refer patients
from a catchment area of about 750,000 people to our main campus
for testing and treatment. In 2025, we completed a $150 million
construction project on campus, which gave us a new main entrance,
a brand-new ER, and an all-new Imaging Department. Our Emergency
Department sees more than 80,000 patients per year. We offer nearly
all medical specialties, except pediatric subspecialties and
transplant surgery. We have an opening for a Cardiac
Anesthesiologist. Candidates must have fellowship training in
Cardiac Anesthesia and be certified in advanced perioperative TEE
or be planning to become certified at the conclusion of training.
Our Cardiac Anesthesiologists supervise CRNAs for cardiac, thoracic
and vascular cases, and they perform cases in the cath labs. The
hospital-employed practitioner will receive a competitive salary of
$675,000 plus additional pay of $1,800 per call shift. The incoming
physician will also earn excellent benefits (health, vision,
dental, life, retirement), eight weeks of vacation and one
additional week for CME. We offer a $50,000 signing bonus and
$75,000 in student loan repayment spread over the three years of
the contract. Ashland, KY is a town with a population of about
25,000 people, located along the Ohio River. We have a clean town
with minimal traffic, a beautiful and very active performing arts
theater, an indoor tennis center, a large downtown park, and
boutique shopping. Our Tri-State region (Kentucky, Ohio and West
Virginia) is renowned for safe, family-friendly communities with an
excellent cost of living. We also have some of the country's finest
state parks and other outdoor areas that feature golf, skiing,
boating, fishing, hunting and biking. We have four seasons, all of
which are relatively mild. We are also a short drive to metro
cities in Ohio (Cincinnati and Columbus) and Kentucky (Lexington
and Louisville). And we are located about 20 minutes from
Huntington, WV, the home of Marshall University. Additionally,
about two hours away in West Virginia, there is excellent snow
skiing and the New River Gorge National Park, which offers multiple
outdoor activities such as whitewater rafting, rock climbing and
hiking.
